About Us

Ethical Business Update is an online magazine with a strong heritage in the fields of ethics, governance, corporate responsibility and socially responsible investing.

Now available only on the web, but soon will be published and will be available for monthly subscription.
The mission of Ethical Business Update – now, as then – is “to promote ethical business practices, to serve that growing community of professionals and individuals striving to work and invest in responsible ways.” We believe this is not only how to guarantee a future for all, but makes good business sense.

A lot has changed in the more than two decades, ethics and governance have emerged as front-page news and lead agenda items in corporate board rooms and the halls of Congress. Good corporate citizenship is now studied, advocated and sometimes practiced. Sustainability has become a goal for well-meaning small businesses as well as many of the Fortune 500.

Whether that represents real progress is open to debate. The continuing fallout from the recent economic and financial crises is a constant reminder that many systems are not working. There’s plenty to discuss. Ethical Business Update aims to serve as a guide.
We seek to do that by offering our readers information, opinion and cutting-edge analysis about business and the intersection of business and society.

We serve CSR, compliance, risk and governance communities with topical and insightful business intelligence and meeting places.

We provide business intelligence to national and multinational companies every year. Our customers are also NGOs, think-tanks, academia, governments and consultancies.

Our conferences are widely recognized as the best in the field.

We're a part of TPN (The Professionals Network), an independently owned company based in Karachi.

Our conferences

Our flagship conference is called Corporate Social Responsibility Conference. We host it during the second week of February each year in Karachi and we’ve expanded it to more cities.

Our other conferences are all very focused on key corporate responsibility management issues. These include reporting, supply chains, heavy industry and other issue or sector based area. The conferences are about two things: Strategy, and Management.

We use corporate case studies and select only the best companies as speakers. All of our conference agendas are rooted in in-depth research undertaken in cooperation with our corporate customers and other key stakeholders. Visit www.theprofessionalsnetwork.pk for more event information.
